It's a second degree trinomial in 'x'. Its numerical value depends on the value of 'x'.

Very nice exercise with the quadratic formula. But it doesn't apply here.
The formula is used to solve a quadratic equation, but there's no equation
here ... the question doesn't say that the trinomial is equal to anything.
If the trinomial were equal to zero, then your application of the formula
is the way to solve it; but as it stands, there's nothing to solve.
Also BTW: (B2 - 4AC) < 0 doesn't mean no roots. It means a pair of imaginary
or complex conjugate roots. A quadratic equation alwayshas two roots, even
though they may be equal or imaginary.
4x(4x^2 + 3x + 1)
4x^2 = 16x 16x - 60x = -44x -44x + 225
16X + 5
x3 + 4x2 - 16x - 64 = (x + 4)(x + 4)(x - 4).
2x2+14x
4x(4x^2 + 3x + 1)
4x^2 = 16x 16x - 60x = -44x -44x + 225
16X + 5
x3 + 4x2 - 16x - 64 = (x + 4)(x + 4)(x - 4).
16X + 12X all I can see here is factoring out a 4X factor 4X(4 + 3) ---------------
2(x - 7)(x - 1)
(4x - 3)(16x^2 + 12x + 9)
It is 16x squared plus 80x plus 100.Very complicated!
Combine like terms, meaning add 12X plus 4X which is 16X and then you add 25Y plus 15Y which equals 40Y so the answer will be 16x+40y. combine like terms means add the ones with the same variable.
2x2+14x
x2 + 16x - 348 cannot be factored. Solving for x with the quadratic formula results in x = -8 - 2√103 and x = -8 + 2√103
No solution in integers.
